Question

Why are there so many dysfunctional families, has it always been this way?

Answer 1

I think it has always been this way  The older generation just didn t talk about   it  and kept there business to them selves  The older generation worked on there marriage a little more They did not throw it away so quickly They hung in there a worked through things  If they made it harder  and more expensive to get married we would not have all these problems Or made couples take pre counseling before getting married it make things better

Answer 2

I don't think much has changed but it's just hard to get by when times are tough. Usually dysfunctional families are like a cycle. If you come from a dysfunctional family, you're more likely to treat the same way to your kids without even realizing it. Then your kids will treat the same way to their kids. It's usually a cycle which can be broken, but hard to break.
